that's obviously what the obama administration is going to say to the supreme court. they're going to say look, what if a company is owned by christian scientists, does that mean blood transfusions will not be covered under the affordable care act? you can't allow the religious beliefs of owners to trump rules that apply to everybody. the people who are attacking the law say look, we're not talking about, you know t slippery slope. we are simply talking about long-held religious beliefs by these business owners which cannot be overcome by congress' recent judgment in the affordable care act. it's not a simple case. the lower courts have taken different views, have come out different ways. some courts have upheld the law, some have found it unconstitutional. it's going to be a closely argued case in the supreme court and beats the heck out of me how they will come out on it. >> it will be another fascinating court case to watch and probably another close one as well. jeffrey toobin, thank you for your time. we appreciate it. >>> turning to afghanistan now and growing t

the deal calls for plutonium enrichment halted. >> the obama administration had to sell the deal to nervous allies and congressional scent particulars. new sanctions could prompt iran to abandon the nuclear freeze. this deal has been a long time coming, but given the details of this tentative agreement, was it accomplished too quickly. >> i think you can argue the opposite, that it took too long to get this deal where iran is very close to having the capability to develop a nuclear weapon. i think this is the best doing that the international community had to stop iran from getting past that flesh hold point. >> looking at this deal, it hats iran's nuclear program but doesn't dismantle this. was this a mistake by the world powers? >> i'm surprised how good a deal the e.p.5 got in this agreement. iran's not getting a lot in the way of sanctions relief. $10 billion seems a lot, but small compared to what ultimately they were looking for. the p5 got pretty intrusive inspections and stopping work on the nuclear plant and delays in enrichment. this is not ideal, not getting everything you want,
